Answer 1

Alice Correa bought three yards of cloth to make a dress
The cloth was on sale for 1.93 per yard.
Now,  how much did Alice pay for the cloth if the sales tax was 5%.
Let’ solve for the answer
=> 3 yard of clothes were both.
=> Price of clothes are 1.93 dollars per yard
=> then another sales tax is added which is 5%
=> 3 yards * 1.93 dollars = 5.79 dollars
=> 5.79 dollars * .05 = 0.2895
=> 5.79 + 0.2895
=> 6.08 dollars.
